All members are urged to attend this meeting as it is election night and several other important mat- ters concerning the department are to come up.

It was invalidated for reason of non-payment of fees to the City and because of insurance clauses. A complete new franchise will be made out to whichever company gets approval. The City officials votea to put it up to the people of Douglas in a special election which will be an- nounced later. Along with the elec- ilon notices, each company will post their proposed fare charges and bus time schedules with what they feel are fair franchise fees.
